Greetings,

If you are planning to attend the 2019 Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections (SPNHC) conference in Chicago, and have a great collections storage tip to share, please consider submitting an abstract for the STASH storage techniques symposium!



SY-10 Storage Techniques for Art, Science, and History Collections (STASH)

Preventive Conservation and Storage STASH Flash II



The STASH Flash II component includes a "lightning round" session, with short (5-minute) presentations on storage techniques or tips for natural history collections.  We are still looking for contributions that cover innovative storage techniques, tips, or solutions for any of the following:



* Zoological specimens of all types of preparation

* Botanical specimens of all types of preparation

* Geological specimens

* Vertebrate and Invertebrate Paleontological specimens

* Paleobotany specimens



Please refer to the symposium description (SY-10) on the conference website for further information

Feel free to contact me (abraczi1 at msu.edu<mailto:abraczi1 at msu.edu>) if there are questions.



The Abstracts page of the conference website provides general instructions and submission information
http://www.spnhcchicago2019.com/abstract-submissions

The abstract deadline is February 9, 2019

Presenters will be asked to provide their storage solution in a ready format for uploading to the STASHc resource (http://stashc.com/) after the conference. STASHc includes the original content of the SPNHC foundational publication Storage of Natural History Collections: Ideas and Practical Solutions. STASHc was created to share well-designed storage solutions and has grown to include innovative and creative storage solutions from a wide range of contributors, including members of SPNHC.

We are looking forward to receiving additional submissions for the SY-10 symposium.
Sincerely,
Laura Abraczinskas,  on behalf of SY-10 symposium organizers Rachael Arenstein, Lisa Goldberg, Rebecca Kaczkowski, and Rebecca Newberry
